A French-English dictionary for chemists

This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

Usage guidelines

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying.

We also ask that you:

+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for
personal, non-commercial purposes.

+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine

use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help.

+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it.

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner

PREFACE

The present work is the response to a demand (not at all anticipated) for a
French companion to the author's " German-English Dictionary for Chemists."
It follows the plan of the earlier book, which seems to have met with general
favor.

Prof. F. W. Tanner of the University of Illinois has read the galley proof and
added a nimiber of biological terms, and Prof. Frank Vogel of the Mafisachusetts
Institute of Technology has read the page proofs and the manuscript of the Intro-
duction and has also contributed the general statement prefacing the ** Conju-
gation of French Verbs." The author is likewise under obligation to Prof. C. W.
Foulk, Mr. E. J. Crane and Dr. Maurice L. Dolt, and to numerous other friends
who have given opinions or answered queries.

Reference works chiefly consulted: Generaly Clifton-Grimaux-McLaughlin,
French-English Dictionary; the Larousse dictionaries, especially the latest,
" Larousse pour tous." TechniccHf Répertoire technologique des noms d'indus-
tries et de professions (by French Government officials) ; Willcox, French-English
Military Technical Dictionary; De Méric, Dictionnaire des termes de médecine.
The material has been rather scattered, consequently a large proportion has been
obtained by the reading of books, catalogs and journals.

A really good dictionary is a growth. No one can realize as well as the author
how incomplete the vocabulary of this one still is. The very helpful corre-
spondence regarding errors and omissions in the German-English dictionary
leads to the hope that readers will go to the same trouble in this case.

INTRODUCTION

Thanks to the many words which French and English have in common and
to the wonderful clarity of French expression, the beginner usually finds it
easier to learn to read French than German, especially if he has studied Latin
to some account. Separable prefixes, involved sentence order and a certain
weU known " longwordformingtendency " are not there to trouble him. Chemi-
cal names do not present great difficulty. Nevertheless there are pitfalls, such
as the numerous idiomatic phrases, the irregular verb forms and the words
which, tho posing as old friends, do not mean just what they ought to! These
matters the author has tried to keep in mind in the preparation of the dictionary.
The following notes may be of assistance in the use of the vocabulary.

Phrases. A large number of phrases has been included. As a rule, a
phrase is entered under the first important word which occurs in it, preposi-
tions, conjunctions and articles being passed by {en détail imder détaU, tout d*un
coup under touty etc.).

Verbs. Conjugations of typical regular verbs have been placed at the end
of the Introduction in the hope that this may save references to a grammar.
Irregular verb forms which are likely to appear in scientific literature are given
where they are most needed, i.e., in the vocabulary imder their own spellings,
and not safely concealed under the parent verb.

General Words. A general vocabulary superior to that of many pocket
dictionaries is included with the technical words. The special chemical mean-
ing of a general word is ordinarily placed first.

Words Common to French and English. Words of the same or nearly
the same spelling in the two languages are defined even when the meaning is
exactly the same as in English. Manifestly, these words are only a selection
from among those which might have been included. Especially is this true of
the names of chemical compounds.

DerlYed Words. As a space-saving device the meanings of many words are
merely indicated, reference being made to another word which is fully defined.
For example, several senses of the verb brasser (to stir) are given. A listing of
all the corresponding meanings of the noun brassage is avoided by using for the
latter word the form '^ stirring, etc. (see brasser)." Participles and participial
adjectives are often treated in the same way.

Feminine Forms. These are not given except in special cases. The usual
sign of the feminine is the letter e\ thus, gris (gray) becomes grise in the femi-

▼ii

jM introduction

nine singular, while netUre (neutral) which ends in e in the masculine form
remains unchanged in the feminine. The following irregularities should be
noted:

-▼e (fern.) corresponding to -f (masc); as, actif y active,

-se " " -x; as, nitreux, nitreuae,

-se " " -r; as, trompeur^ trompeuse,

-che '' " -c; as, hlancy blanche,

-que " " -c; as, iurcj turque,

-gue " " -g; as, hngy longue,

-trice " " -teup; as, indicateur, indicatrice.

Doubling of the final consonant; as, gros, grosse.

Plural Forms. The regular formation of the plural is by addition of 8 U;
the singular. Departures from this rule are:

-aux (pi.) corresponding to -al, -aU or -au (sing.); as, égal, égaux,
-eaux ** ** -eau; as, nouveau, nouveaux,

-eux " " -eu; sa, feu, feux,

-oux " " -ou; as, caiUou, cailloux.

Nouns ending in -8, -x and -z and masculine adjectives ending in s and -x in
the singular are unchanged in the plural.

Nouns Used as Adjectives. French differs from English in its adjectival
use of nouns. In some instances the use is the same; as, odeur ether, ether odor;
solution lilas, lilac solution. For the most part, however, French nouns used
as adjectives might be construed as in apposition; as, chimiste ingénieur,
chemical engineer; tube séparateur, separating tube. On the other hand such
English expressions as " sodium chloride " (chlorure de sodium) and "gun steel "
(jocier à canon) require the use of a preposition when rendered into French.

Inorganic Nomenclature. Most inorganic names are readily translated
from French into English as soon as one learns that -ure corresponds to the
English -dde; -dque to -ic; and -eux (fem. -euse) to -ou^.

Names of hydracids differ in construction from the English names; as,
chlorhydrique, hydrochloric.

Names of salts containing the preposition de should not invariably be trans-
lated by using **of." For example, while acétaJte de cuivre is correctly trans-
lated " acetate of copper '* the form *' copper acetate " is more frequent.

Apparently, the older fashion of naming salts from the bases instead of the
metals (as carbonate ^e soude, carbonate of soda) is more persistent in French
than in English, hence in many cases it would be well to use the modern form
(in this case, sodium carbonate) in translating them.

Organic Nomenclature. The use of adjectives in French organic names,
instead of a combining form as in English and German, may be noted; thus

Digitized by

Google

ORGANIC TERMS H

the compound CeHiCls (dichlorobenzene) is often called benzène (or bengine)
dichlaréf although dicMorobemene and even the Germanism dichlorbemol also
occur.

Names of esters are foimd in which the name of the alcohol radical is pre-
fixed to the name of the acid; as, ether amylacétique. This should be rendered
"amyl acetate" rather than **amylacetic ester" or '*amylacetic ether" if the
oompoimd CHsCOaCsHn is meant, and other cases should be treated similarly.

Words ending in -dgue are used in a general descriptive sense more frequently
than the corresponding English words in -ic; berbérinique, for instance, would
be properly translated "berberinic " if designating an acid, but it often means
simply "of berberine " or **berberine "; as, ada berbériniqueSy berberine salts.

German names ending in -dnsaure may usually be translated into French and
English in two ways, that is, as acide -dnique (-inic acid) or as acide -dque (-ic
acid); and it sometimes happens that the one alternative is chosen in French,
the other in English. For example the compound named Levulinsaure is
usually called levulinic acid in English while in French the form adde Uvuiique
seems to be the more conmion. Such differences are not numerous.

In order to have names which are in accord with the usage of the American
Chemical Society as embodied in the '' Directions to Abstractors *^ the follow-
ing rules (which also harmonize well with the best usage in Great Britain)
should be observed. They are not necessarily to be applied to names of phar-
maceuticals and dyes, and possibly some exceptions should be allowed for
commercial use only, as glycerin instead of glycerol. Differences between trade
and scientific usage are always to be regretted.

(1) Translate oxy- by hydroxy- when it designates hydroxyl, as is commonly
the case in organic names. When oxy- designates the ketonic group (CO) it is
preferably translated keio-.

(2) Translate names of compoimds the chief function of which is alcoholic or
phenolic so that the name ends in -ol] as. glycerol, resorcinol, mannitol, pinacol
(not pinacone).

(3) When the French ending -oZ does not indicate hydroxyl it should be
translated -die (as, anisole, indole), or in the case of a few hydrocarbons -ene
(as benzol, benzene; toluol, toluene; styroly st3rrene).

(4) The ending -dne or -in should be translated -dne in the case of basic sub-
stances imd -in elsewhere; as, aniline, glycine, palmitin, albmnin. Exceptions
are benzine (meaning benzene) and the names of alcohols and phenols (see (2)).

(6) The form amido- should be so translated only when it denotes combina-
tion with an acid group. Usually it is to be translated amino-; as, acide amir
dopropionique, aminopropionic acid; amidophénol, aminophenol. The same
holds for imido-, aniUdo-, etc.

(6) In such combining forms as bromo-, cyano-, chloro-, nitro-, etc., when
they denote substituting radicals, the connective o is to be used invariably; as

uigiiizea Dy vjv^\_/n: iv

% INTRODUCTION

chlorabenzène or efdarbemhie, chlorobenzene; acide chlaraeétique, chloroaoetic add.
This usage is by no means universal, but those who cannot reconcile themselves
to such spellings as '' bromoacetic '' should at least avoid the German forms
bromphenol, acetphenetidine, etc., by using the connective o before consonants.
(French literature does not contain so many of these objectionable forms as
does the German.)

(7) The French ending -ane should be translated -an^ if it is the name of a
hydrocarbon (or parent heterocyclic compound) which iafvUy mturated; other-
wise, -an. Examples: methane, menthane, tolan, furan, pentosan.

(8) Names of acids ending in -carbonique are translated 'Carboxylic, not
-carbonic.

CONJUGATION OF FRENCH VERBS

1. General Statement

(By Professor Frank Vogel)

In general the tenses of all regular verbs and of most irregular verbs can be
formed or recognized from the five principal parts, viz.: (1) present infinitive,
(2) present participle, (3) past participle, (4) present indicative, (5) past
definite indicative.

(1) From the present infinitive, by adding directly -ai, -cm, -a, -ans, -ez, -ont,
the future indicative is formed. Likewise by adding -aie, -ais, -ait, -done, -iez,
-aient the conditional present is obtained, but infinitives in -re alwa3rs drop
the -e.

(2) From the present participle, by changing -ant into -aiSy -ais, -ait, -ions,
•ieZy -aient y we obtain the imperfect indicative; and by changing -ant into -e,
-esy -Cy -ions, -iezy -ent we obtain the present subjunctive.

(3) The past participle with the auxiliary avoir for all transitive verbs (but
with être for intransitives denoting motion, change of condition or position,
and for reflexives) forms the compoimd tenses in the active voice. However,
with the past participle and the required tense form of être the tenses of the
passive voice are formed.

(4) The present indicative gives the imperative by dropping the4)ronoun
of the second person singular and of the first and second person plural, also
final 8 of the second person singular in the first (-er) conjugation is dropped
except when followed by the pronouns -y or -en.

(5) The past definite gives the imperfect subjimctive by changing the first
person singular final i or « to -saCy saesy -*ty ssionsy -esiezy seent. Note that the
third person singular alwa3rs has a circumflex (^) accent over the vowel (a, i, u)
before the t.

4. Reflexive Verbs

In the simple tenses, reflexive verbs are conjugated like the corresponding
active forms, but with the use of the pronouns me, te, se, nous, vous, se (as the
person and number may be). In the compoimd tenses, in addition to the use
of the above pronouns the auxiliary être (instead of avoir as in the active forms)
is employed; thus, lover (active), se Uwer (reflexive); avoir Uwé (active), s^&re
Uwé (reflexive).

Digitized by

CONJUGATION OF FRENCH VERBS xvii

Reflexive verbs are translated:

(1) Reflexively; as, se lover, to wash oneself.

(2) Reciprocally; as, se laver , to wash each other or one another. (The

above two meanings are not usually given in the vocabulary.)

(3) Passively; as, se publier , to be published. (This meaning is often

given, especially when it is a customary one.)

(4) Intransitively; as, Vor se fond, the gold melts, gold melts. (Such

meanings have been included as far as possible.)

The following inflections must serve as examples for the reflexive verbs:

je me lave, I wash myself, I wash je me suis lavé, I have washed myself,

I have washed
